uni make module - revealed!

well i know i was quite mean in my last post and tempted you with hints of a new project but all will now be revealed!

my new module at uni lets me chose whatever i wan to make, as long as it is somehow related to what i want to do during third year. having greatly enjoyed making the marie antoinette dress for photography i have decided i'm going to spend third year doing historic theatre costume (i may as well do something i enjoy rather than trying to break into the haute couture or ready to wear market, which i don't really enjoy designing for) so this module i'll be recreating an elizabeth 1st tudor dress, somewhat similar to this -



My version will be pink though, and thats all i'm letting slip today!
designs for this new dress to follow soon, and i'll try and post up a few updated photos of the marie antoinette dress, it's getting finished just quite slowly!

  2. nope my tutor said do something challenging so i'm going all out! no point doing something if its easy....well unless it really pretty then i suppose there would be lol! i'm doing the pattern drafting for this one while i finish off the marie antoinette dress, i've time planned to have the marie antoinette dress finished by wednesday-ish, the toile for this one done over easter, so this one should be started properly sewing after easter holidays!
    much loves xxxxxx
